Been casually trying to increase my ELO on Wordfeud. When you know the dictionary by heart (Wordfeud has rather restricted dictionaries) and have the basics of bonus hunting and hooking down, Scrabble becomes a pure game of imperfect knowledge and strategy. The known information is the prior letter distribution, the played letters on the board and in your rack. The unknown information is your opponent's rack. However…
Tangent: Elo, not ELO. The rating system is named after the creator Arpad Elo, it doesn't stand for anything.
With respect, ELO stands for Electric Light Orchestra.
